Garcia Band In Hawaii, Earth Day 1990 |
I was living in Kona on the Big island in Hawaii in the late 80's and early 90's. it was the time when Jerry and other members of the band used to vacation on the Kona Coast quite regularly. The word was that the Boys never played in Hawaii because it was where they went to relax.
However, in 1990, The Garcia Band played two shows, One at the Honolulu Bowl on 5/12/90 and an Earth Day Concert at the Hilo Civic Center on 5/20/90. I was lucky enough to go to both shows.
I owned a music store in Kona, and had the poster for the shows in our window. There were only about 50 of them printed, and I still have that poster matted on my wall.
I have never been able to get copies of the shows. Does anyone know if there are copies out there?

Re: Garcia Band In Hawaii, Earth Day 1990 |
I do. I have both the Oahu show and the Hilo show. The Oahu show is a better quality recording. Both are auds. I was at the Hilo show. If I'm not mistaken it was a benefit show to help save the coral reefs over here. It was a very good show but the recording is only so-so. You remember that place. The acoustics were awful.
I remember that poster! Did it mention a benefit show? I remember walking by a pole in Hilo and seeing that poster and regretting not pulling it off and taking it home. I was afraid people might not find out about the show if I took it!
I think the Hilo recording is sort of rare. It's not a great recording though. I don't know if any of the torrent sites have it. Let me know if you need a copy. I just checked bt.etree.org and they have the Oahu show,. 5/12/90 and it looks like there are 2 seeders.
A very nice recording too!
Jerry used to come here to dive, not to play shows.
A place to escape to after a tour. I seem to remember him doing those shows just to be a good neighbor. He even went in front of the county council during a vote on some environmental bill and spoke out publicly about keeping the coral reefs over here safe from being damaged.
